    Greetings All,
    I just went outside to check my roses, Graham Thomas and Rouge Royal, and I was delighted to see the beginning of buds and new leaves.
    I also noticed that the Graham Thomas canes bearing rose hips had no leaves or buds but the non hip bearing canes did. Now I'm wondering, should I have removed the rose hips? Should I remove them now? I also searched for information on pruning and see that it should be done in the Spring. Can anyone tell me how low down I should prune? Also, does anyone have helpful pruning tips?
    Thanks in Advance:)
    Cheers!
    Marlene
